Eyes Wide Shut: Internet pokes fun at Cowboys' Bailey over headshot
Cowboys kicker Dan Bailey had a relatively ho-hum game against the Giants on Sunday night, but managed to dominate the talk on social media.
Bailey, who booted a 21-yard field goal and a 32-yard field goal while also converting three extra points, became fodder for the Internet after NBC flashed his headshot while he attempted one kick.
The photo showed Bailey with his eyes closed.
Yo. Can they get a pic with our boy Dan Bailey's eyes open? #hesleep pic.twitter.com/DE0n7l00Wl
